Title: windshield wiper blade inserts for 1986 GV
Post by: wantabe on May 21, 2017, 03:27:46 pm
So, most auto supply stores don't sell inserts anymore. The blade is heavier than auto blades and I haven't seen the entire blade/frame similar to what's on the coach. Where would you look? At a heavy truck dealer? Is there a mail order outlet? I know there is a length requirement, is there a size designation or identification number, etc. ?

   Not a problem as O'Reilly's carries the blades you need, It's a complete assy. you just un-bolt the old blade at the pivot on the arm and bolt on the new assy.
 Comes with new bolts and spacers ( where needed ) it's an easy fix, did mine the last time at Kurt Goudy SP in Wyo. while I was waiting for the evening Trout hunt.

As a guess - 67-241 Trico 24"  Those are ~<$20 each from Walmart  TRICO HD Heavy Duty Wiper Blade - Walmart.com (https://www.walmart.com/ip/TRICO-HD-Heavy-Duty-Wiper-Blade/54944025)
